Chapter 61 Mathematics Olympiad
Early the next morning, after meditating all night, Lynn pushed the door and walked out after a simple wash, just in time to meet Philip, the professor of elemental science, who was going out.
"Professor Lynn, how was your rest last night?" Philip greeted with a smile.
"Very good, the conditions here are much more comfortable than in the Sekas Empire." There was also a smile on Lynn's face, from today onwards, there was no need to worry about the threat of the Holy See all day.
"Of course, I've heard that the poor people there live in thatched and stone-brick houses, right?" Philip asked curiously.
For Philip, who came from the land of wizards, what he knew about the Secas Empire was all hearsay, and every year on the moonlight he liked to visit the tavern on the docks and listen to the sailors tell them interesting stories about the outside.
"That's true in terms of the poor alone, but the nobles and priests also lived in luxury." Seeing that Philip was interested, Lynn gave the other party a general lecture on the composition of the empire and the Holy See based on the memory of the original Karl.
"Since you've fought with the archbishop, do you know how these people use magic? Do they also need to learn about the elements, shaping, or alchemy? Philip asked again.
"I don't think so." Lynn shook his head, judging from the priest selection process in Nordland, the clergy only need to be able to fight and have a strong enough belief in the gods.
This is also a question that he has never understood, could it be that there are other ways to gain power besides exploring the truth?
Philip didn't delve too much into this, and after satisfying some curiosity, he took the initiative to introduce Lynn to every area of Iyeta Academy.
Covering an area of more than 10,000 square meters, the iconic Screaming Tower is located in the center of the academy, with the residences of students and professors at the back, the magic library and combat training ground on the right side of the academy, and the rest of the area is the teaching area for each subject.
Elemental, Shaping, Alchemy, Potions...... These are now the four major departments of the Iyeta Academy.
In addition to this, in the City of Wizards, some of the top academies also offer special courses such as prophecy, force fields, and more.
"Originally, there was still psionic learning, but now it is abandoned, and it will be a place for you to teach in the future." Philip pointed to the Screaming Tower, a separate building.
The entire psionic academy looked a little dark, covered in heavy gray walls, probably because it had not been visited for too long, and the walls were covered with moss, which looked a little dilapidated.
"I'll find a few goblins to clean up this place later, and it should be ready for use in the afternoon...... Those psionic wizards talk all day long, and it's a good thing that the council has banned them. Philip said with some schadenfreude, and then explained to Lynn the arrangement of the lesson.
As a professor, you are free to schedule your classes, but it is best to keep them fixed and try not to conflict with the teaching hours of other professors, otherwise those apprentices will have to choose between the two courses.
However, after Philip finished talking about the schedule of the four courses he had now, Lynn immediately realized that what the other party had said before was nonsense, because almost every day was filled with various courses, and the new courses he opened were bound to take up time with other subjects.
"Elementology is the most elective subject in Iyeta Academy, and classes usually start at ten to twelve in the morning and seven to nine in the evening...... "Philip kindly reminded him, which obviously meant that Lynn should not think about it during these two periods, and definitely not many people would come to listen to his new class.
Lynn nodded noncommittally, and Philip asked again.
"Have you already thought of a name for the new subject?"
"Why don't you just call it...... Let's do the math Olympiad! Lynn said with a deep groan.
After accepting the professorship, Lynn has been thinking about what she should teach.
Magic definitely doesn't work.
By now, he had mastered less than ten of the magic, and perhaps not as many as some of the students, and it would only be a joke to teach him, unless he was willing to teach him how to make white phosphorus.
However, this thing is one of his few hole cards, and Lynn is not prepared to spread it, so he has to choose those disciplines from his previous life.
Language, geography and biology are influenced by the world and are not suitable as teaching contents.
Chemistry is very good, but it conflicts with the elemental discipline, and he can't fight Philip when he first arrives, right?
This is a bit unauthentic, and maybe there are some novel elements in this other world that he doesn't know, so it's better not to teach them randomly.
As for physics? He writes a formula by hand, and the other party has to understand the operation symbols.
The only option is math!
The circle of this world is still a circle, a square is still a square, the basic rules of operation must be universal, and mathematics is the foundation of all science and technology, and it is the most important tool for human beings to understand the world and transform the world.
It can be said that most of the scientific theories can be expressed in the form of mathematical formulas, this discipline is always at the forefront of the times, and many cutting-edge scientific research results are completely deduced by mathematics!
Those magical theories should be no exception.
For example, the Helram formula he used when learning [Magic Missile], and Kru's research on fluid mechanics all involve a lot of knowledge of mathematical operations, which shows that wizards have been studying mathematics for a long time, but they have not yet formed a specialized discipline.
The reason is simple, wizards can't get power directly from mathematics, they all benefit indirectly, and use it in some kind of magic.
As a result, all mathematical formulas are attached to various disciplines, and sometimes even the methods and symbols are not uniform.
After Lynn briefly described the meaning of the Olympiad, Philip's expression became a little strange, he thought that Lynn would talk about those novel theories from the [Secret Law Society] in the new course, but he didn't expect it to be some simple calculations.
Is there really a student who will learn this kind of thing?
Philip opened his mouth, but he stopped talking, he felt that if Lynn taught these things alone, he probably wouldn't be able to recruit even an apprentice.
However, it is the freedom of each professor to choose what to teach, and Philip is not easy to make suggestions, secretly thinking that it would be better to mention this new course to the students when the class is held, so as not to have no one when Lynn opens the course, which is embarrassing.
